OUTSIDE
AREAS
Really, is there an error in the gameplay
here? The author lets players advance without opening the main N double doors
to get access to the temple area, by simply jumping to the top of the walls.
But anyway, I'll write the way to open those doors like the builder
"thought".
Turn around and run SE to kill the soldier
in that corner; he'll leave the Crossbow when he dies. In that far SE corner you
can climb the stairs and enter through the very left side of the barrier, but I
found nothing inside. There are two double doors at the E side of this
courtyard, but I found nothing behind them. Another soldier awaits you near the N arch
and he drops the Laser Sight when he dies. Kill the soldier above that arch, too. Beware
of the grenades! They can kill Lara! Go through this arch and kill the soldier
at the top of the next wall. Go there and climb to the top of the wall where
the soldier was. Advance S and go to the top of the arch and pick up the crossbow explosive
ammo the soldier left behind. Safety drop to the ground floor, face
W and combine the crossbow with the sight and use the explosive ammo to shoot
the barrier in the W wall. Inside, you can shoot a wooden box in the room where
the barrels are to get a large medipack. In the previous room you can open a
floor trapdoor near the box in the SW corner (facing W) and drop down to the
sewers.
THE
SEWERS
Advance until you see a door opening to your
left. (In the next W room in front of you, after killing another soldier
you can shoot a wooden box to get shotgun ammo.) Go through that corridor (avoid
the left passage) to another door which opens automatically. Turn right and
enter a storage room with a high jumpswitch in the S wall. The first wooden box
to your left is moveable; use it to reach the jumpswitch to open the large double
doors outside to get access to the temple area. Make your way back there,
killing another soldier
on your way, and pick up the flares he drops. To the left of those now opened
doors is a building with two openings with barriers. Use the crossbow with
explosive ammo to shoot either barrier and inside shoot a box in the corner to
get shotgun
ammo; kill another soldier outside.
Walk through the N doors you opened with the
jumpswitch in the sewers and find yourself in another large outside area. Run
N, W and S to find a building up the S hills with another barrier you can
trespass from its left side, but I found nothing there. Go N to the temple
area. To the right of the temple entrance there is a small building with a
crawlspace in its S wall. Go inside to get SECRET #1: the Shotgun. Kill the soldiers
guarding the temple entrance if you want (they will not attack you) and go
inside.
TWO
SWITCHES
Follow the only possible path to your right
to a room with a fountain and a small pool and kill some bats there. There is a closed door N
and two corridors E and W. You can choose what you want; at the end of each
path you'll pull a switch to open the door in this pool room.
East route:
Run for your life to avoid the rolling ball
and drop into the pit in the next room; run through the N corridor at the
bottom and continue to the very end of this path, taking care of the darts in
the next room (beware, they're poisonous!) to find the first switch in the
final room. Take the goodies from the pedestals and return to the initial pit
with the ball, killing a couple of soldiers on your way and picking up the flares
and the large
medipack they drop. You'll have to move the cage near the skeleton
through the corridor to get up. Return to the pool room.
West route:
In the first room kill the soldier
and pick up the ammo
he drops. Time the swinging spiked hammer and climb the central ledge to avoid
two rolling balls. At the far S end you can spot the second switch, but if you
want you can drop into the pit and go through the long S crawlspace to get SECRET
#2:
the Revolver
and revolver
ammo. Go back to the pit, climb, go S to pull the switch and return
to the fountain room (another soldier appears with a small medipack); the door is now
open.
FIRST
HAND OF ORION
In the next room, climb one of the niches in
the central structure, push the moveable block and climb to the room above to
get SECRET #3:
get all four goodies
from the pedestals. Following the E route you'll arrive at a room with four
dragons spitting fire at the bottom. There's another error in the gameplay
here; if you drop to the very bottom of this room, you'll find a dead end and
you'll never be able to return up (thanks,
raidertom). Drop to the middle floor and time the fires to take a running
jump to reach the central ledge, or don't drop and from the top of this room go
either S or N ledges and run off to the central ledge in the middle level
(losing some health). Pick up the small medipack there and pull the switches in the
N and S alcoves to open a door for later.
Now safety drop to the ground floor and go
through the W passage; eventually you'll
find a lava room. Grab the monkeyswing and time the fire emitters to reach the
other side. At the end of the path you'll find a room with a blue gem (the Hand of Orion).
It seems that the water is not really water in this pool. Return to the main
room with the dragons the way you came. Something in this room has changed: in
the N and S sides of the room, between the dragons, a couple of blocks have
lowered, revealing a passage to get SECRET #4: shotgun normal ammo and a small medipack. Return outside and
through the E opening this time. Climb the pole and jump back to any ledge,
through the door you opened some time ago and this time you're forced to time
the fires of the dragons, jump to the central ledge and to the other side of
the room, where you can climb to the top from either the SW or the NW corner
and return to the main room.
SECOND
HAND OF ORION
Kill the soldier who appears and now go through the W
passage. In the next room climb the S ledge and jump to grab the opening in the
ceiling. Use the horizontal poles to cross the spike pits and jump into the
water in the last room. Locate the underwater lever under the bridge and pull
it to open the UW door in the opposite wall. Continue swimming until you can
get out of the water. Shoot the white vase in the left corner to find a small medipack.
(There is a wall switch in this room, but I never learned what it did).
Continue through the S passage to a room with a deep pit and two trunks, part
of a now incomplete bridge. The pillars under those trunks are climbable, so
climb down to the bottom of the pit and follow the N passage to find SECRET #5:
a large
medipack
and crossbow
ammo. Return to the top of the room and from here Lara can walk over
the trunks to reach the other side. In the next room pick up the second blue
gem (Hand of
Orion) (the same problem with the water here) and return all the way
back to the main room the way you came, killing a soldier who drops revolver ammo.
ENDING
In the main room, place the gems in the
mouths of the snakes in the N wall to open the door. Approach the back of the
room and pick up the damned figurine from the pedestal to finish the level.
